[IBC] Myrtle Bonsai
Having killed several, & hopefully learned from my mistakes, I recently
bought another dwarf myrtle (Myrtus communis 'Compacta'). Seeking inspiration on the Web, I looked for some pictures. Searching on "Myrtle bonsai" brought up nothing but crape myrtle. Searching on Myrtus communis brought up one decent specimen from Phoenix. There were a number of pictures from Germany & Austria, all of them dreadful to an American eye. They were all done in pompoms. Even a natural unstyled myrtle in Israel looks better (it grows as an upright oval dense bush). Don't tell me a myrtle can't be styled to look like something with taste, or can't it?
